Timeline of the Online Culture War series by True Discipline.
"The internet is ephemeral and not as much a subject of historical analysis in the way that the rest of society is."
"Instead of looking at trends of movements like feminism, BLM etc, I will try to tell this story with a timeline of singular events, similar to the book Human Smoke which tells the story of the lead up to WW2 though a chronological timeline of events that happened on various days. The scope of this project is culture war issues, mainly racial issues, feminism, conspiracy theories, LGBT issues and how they interact with online subcultures. Some events will be exclusively internet based like viral videos or memes being posted for the first time, while others will be more newsworthy events that were discussed and debated on the internet. Not every event will be important in and of itself, some will be used to illustrate a broader trend."

But the gm app was shut down back in September after a hacker reportedly gained access to user data. Private channels are only accessible to subscribers and don’t appear in public searches. To join a private channel, you need to receive a link from the owner (administrator). A private channel is an excellent solution for companies and teams.

The court said the defendant had also incited people to commit public nuisance, with messages calling on them to take part in rallies and demonstrations including at Hong Kong International Airport, to block roads and to paralyse the public transportation system.
